You are running an out-of-date version of samba (2:4.2.14+dfsg-0+deb8u6 vs. 4.2.14+dfsg-0+deb8u7+b1). In addition, you seem to be missing samba-common-bin, samba-dsdb-modules, and python-samba, all of which are dependencies of samba.
Try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall samba' If that doesn't include install the removed packages, run, 'sudo apt-get install samba-common-bin samba-dsdb-modules python-samba' On Sat, Jul 15, 2017 at 11:01 AM, Hans Kraus <h...@hanswkraus.com> wrote: > Am 15.07.2017 um 16:05 schrieb Jason Wittlin-Cohen: > >> What does 'dpkg -l | grep samba' show? >> >> On Sat, Jul 15, 2017 at 10:01 AM, Hans Kraus <h...@hanswkraus.com >> <mailto:h...@hanswkraus.com>> wrote: >> >> Am 15.07.2017 um 14:48 schrieb Jason Wittlin-Cohen: >> >> Did you run an apt-get dist-upgrade yesterday?
